Categories: Holidaze

1. Teddy Pendergrass, "Happy Kwanzaa"

Not many mainstream artists have touched upon Kwanzaa for some reason, but Teddy Pendergrass was willing to get into the spirit.

You know Zin and some of the guys in D.R.U.M. recorded and released a really great Kwanzaa CD a few years ago. Its really really great! You need to find a copy!

I'm offended at you defining these as Kwanzaa songs!  How dare you use the K-word to describe the holiday that those that celebrate it celebrate!  Just like those uppity Christians and Jews calling their holidays Christmas and Chanukkah.  After all, a holiday tree is just as good as Christmas tree and a holiday candle arrangement is just as meaningful as a Menorah.  Thank you for my ability to rant this Christmas season (yeah, you can suck that "holiday" non-sense...I celebrate Christmas, not holiday).
